Downloaded ImgBurn yesterday and was very careful to uncheck and refuse any extras, of which there were many. No extras showed up but the first thing I did was pull the internet connection and run a FULL scan with MalwareBytes.
Six Opencandy PUP's showed up. They could only have come from IB as I had just run a full scan the evening before and had not gone anywhere else.

I chose not to download those things and still got them.

It did take some time to find all the places this junk was hiding and removing them.
